“One had to take some action against fear when once it laid hold of one.”
— Rainer Maria Rilke
Simplified Meaning:
When you're feeling scared, it's important to do something about it right away. If you let fear control you, it can become even stronger and harder to deal with. Think of a time when you were a kid and afraid to speak in front of the class. The more you avoided it, the scarier it got. But once you faced your fear by speaking just a little, you started to feel braver. Similarly, in life, don't let fear stop you from doing things. Taking small steps to confront what scares you can help you overcome it and feel more confident.
